CATELLOO

The stuff I do is literally me. My passion for technology, for the virtuality. I started working on this kind of things one year ago, so I feel the need to improve and express as much as I can. I try to communicate daily what I feel and what I see in a way that's aesthetically pleasing. I can say this work is principally focused on doing and improving myself from a creative point of view. The content of the work is instead mainly derived from the daily emotional sphere that accompanies me.

I know this is a bit cliché, but anything can trigger my imagination. Sometimes it’s a song, another piece of art, or something I touch. I try to figure out how I can reinterpret whatever the trigger was using my 3D software. Living in New York City I come across interesting things almost everyday and something I see will often trigger an idea.

THE MANY FACES OF PARKER DAY

Under the title ICONS, LA-based photographer Parker Day portrays members of America’s modern day tribes. Urban freaks shown in bold colors, as if in an ad or a cartoon. Mind you, all is not what it seems. Partly staged, these portraits are often a combined effort between artist and model, celebrating originality and individuality, yet reminding us that a mask, any mask, is always but a mask.

HUGH KRETSCHMER - THE CRAFTING OF ILLUSIONS

Born in a house of artists, Hugh Kretschmer did not waste any time in mastering his craft as a visual artist. From a very young age he harnessed his handiwork skills to create art, and consequently developed a very peculiar aesthetic. Never shying away from building his own sets and crafting his props, Kretschmer is one of those rare artists who has the freedom to recreate his vision with his very own bare hands, and the results are stunning. His imagery is surreal and yet grounded in thought-provoking social commentary, and his aesthetic is stunningly modern, despite its minimal digital enhancements.
